Garden of Life, FucoThin, 180 Softgels

The length of time for the expiration date or "best used before" date depends on the type of product, as well as the brand.

Perishable items (such as flax oils or certain probiotics) generally have shorter expiration dates. Although our warehouse is fully air-conditioned, these more fragile items are put in cold storage (freezer or refrigeration unit) for maximum freshness.

Our receiving department does its best to verify and then enter the correct expiration dates for all incoming products. However, discrepancies do occur from time to time. This being said, the exceptionally high turnover at iHerb ensures that our inventory is among the freshest in the industry.

Shipping Weight

The Shipping Weight includes the product, protective packaging material and the actual shipping box. In addition, the Shipping Weight may be adjusted for the Dimensional Weight (e.g. length, width &amp; height) of a package. It is important to note that certain types of products (e.g. glass containers, liquids, fragile, refrigerated or ice packed) will often require protective packaging material. As such, these products will reflect a higher Shipping Weight compared to the unprotected product.

FücoThin is a natural, whole food based supplement made with fucoxanthin combined with pomegranate seed oil, for a patent-pending formula that is naturally thermogenic.

What is thermogenesis?

Thermogenesis is the process by which the body increases its metabolic rate, requiring utilization of internal stores of energy such as fat. FücoThin supports metabolism without stimulating the central nervous system. In a human clinical trial, the metabolic rate with FücoThin was significantly higher than with diet alone.

What is fucoxanthin?

Fucoxanthin is a carotenoid (like lutein and lycopene), a powerful antioxidant that protects cells from free-radical damage. It is found in several different types of marine vegetables (edible seaweed), long considered among the most nutritious vegetation on Earth. Recent research suggests that natural compounds in marine vegetables can significantly affect fat metabolism and that fucoxanthin is one of the key ingredients that, along with diet and exercise, may have helped to minimize health and weight issues among Asian populations where it is consumed the most.

What Makes fücoThin Unique?

The only fucoxanthin formula with "Gold Standard" human clinical studies.

Mechanism of Action: fücoThin works by increasing the expression of UCP1 in the mitochondrion of cells. This creates additional heat, or thermogenesis, within cells which burns fat.

Non-Stimulant: Unlike ephedra or caffeine, fücoThin burns fat without stimulating the central nervous system - no nervousness, jitters or lost sleep.

Suggested Use

Adults take one softgel three times daily with food and at least 8 oz. of water. Not intended for children.

For Advanced Usage: Increase gradually to three softgels three times daily (9 softgels per day) with food and at least 8 oz. of water. If you are consuming two fücoProtein supplement bars per day, then advanced usage is two softgels three times daily (6 softgels per day) with food and at least 8 oz. of water. Use with calorie conscious diet and exercise.

Warnings

Caution: As with any dietary supplement, consult your physician before using this product, especially if you are pregnant, nursing, anticipate surgery, take medication on a regular basis or are otherwise under medical supervision.

Normally I like to be sarcastic with voodoo products.
But this product has given me a WOW! moment,
and it continues.
I am a chef by trade and my drug of choice is chocolate
and chocolate biscuits.
Unfortunately this product is driving me away from the above.
I open the cupboard and my 2 old friends beg me to man up and have
a choco feast....and it ain't happening people.
" Not happy Jan" moment here in Sydney mate.
Look it up on youtube...Yellow Pages ad.
I took 2 x2 the first day ...but had a bad nights sleep....
which I have read can be common if taken too late in the day.
Now I take only one in the morning and another 2 capsules by 2pm.
From day one this has worked for me, I just don't feel the craving to
eat. I am awaiting some blood test results to see if I have dropped my
sugar levels much. Will be interesting to see.
I do know that my skin has cleared up, and all the scratches from
gardening are healing faster. I am also feeling better in myself and I
suspect that the blood sugar evening out stops any mood swings.
Now what about the iHerb service.
Here in Sydney Australia, do I want to pay up my hard earned cash to lose
it on a scammy site.
Not happening here people...I Herb means outstanding service.

Especially as I am a first time customer.

No feelings were hurt in this review...... unusual.
Everyone is different...your results may vary.
But I hope that you enjoy your order as I have.
Good luck.

Iv just finished my 4 th 180 soft gel bottle of fucothin, taking 9 soft gel capsules per day. I have not lost any weight nor centimetres. Iv continued on my normal healthy eating plan and increased my walking. Very dissappointed as I had high hopes given other reviews of this product.

If I need to lose weight at any time, I take Fucothin as directed and I don't worry about anything else,(e.g., watching what I eat or exercising). Within 2-4 weeks people start to notice and comment on my weight loss. Of course with diet and exercise you will probably get better results but, I've never found it necessary. I've been using this product for years and I highly recommend it.
